Notice of the 44th "Latest Construction Method and Technology Training Seminar"

I would like to report on a new initiative that utilizes the cutting function of steel obstacles.

Yasuda Engineering Co., Ltd. will conduct a seminar at the 44th "Latest Construction Technology Seminar on Advanced Propulsion Methods" held in Tokyo and Osaka. We will report on our new initiatives utilizing the steel obstacle cutting function of the milling mole method. This seminar is accredited as a "Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Program" by the Japan Society of Civil Engineers. (CPD credits: 6.5) We sincerely look forward to your attendance. [Overview] ■ Seminar Time: 14:55 - 15:50 ■ Seminar Content: Challenging New Areas with the Milling Mole Method - New Initiatives Utilizing the Steel Obstacle Cutting Function - *For application details, please refer to [Details on How to Apply for Participation Here]. *For more information, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

• Special Construction Method

It is possible to directly reach the existing shield through the application of metal cutting technology! We are currently presenting examples of construction where direct cutting was performed on existing shields.

The "Milling Mole Method" is equipped with a specialized bit designed for cutting through obstacles using a tunneling machine. It allows the cutter of the tunneling machine to make ultra-low-speed contact with obstacles through a special telescopic pipe, enabling cutting through the rotation of the cutter. This operates on the same principle as lathe machining. A significant feature of this construction using the "Milling Mole Method" is that it achieved direct cutting of steel segments without performing mirror cutting. Since improvements to the protective measures of the existing shield section could not be made from the surface, a boring machine was mounted, allowing for injection from within the tunneling machine (using a dual-pipe strainer method with multiple phases). Additionally, a formwork for cutting connection was installed inside the existing shield, and fluidized treatment soil was placed, allowing for direct cutting at ultra-low speeds and safely avoiding the risks of water inflow and subsidence accidents that occur during mirror cutting. Previously, mirror cutting was performed from within the shield, raising concerns from customers about the risks to the surrounding environment due to groundwater inflow and ground collapse associated with that construction. We proposed direct cutting of the existing shield, and after executing the construction, we successfully reached the target without affecting water inflow or the surrounding environment, resulting in great satisfaction from the client! 《You can download the construction case from the PDF below!》

Introducing a case study of shield arrival construction using the milling mall method!

The "Milling Mole Method," equipped with four special functions: exploration, improvement, cutting, and guidance, is a ground obstacle response type mud-based thrusting method. It consists of three devices: a tunneling machine, a special telescopic pipe, and a special injection pipe, allowing for the precise cutting and removal of underground obstacles. In the construction of the inflow pipe sewer system for the second Nakagawa Chubu rainwater adjustment pond, the Milling Mole Method was used to carry out the shield arrival work. Milling cutting length: The assembly precision of the steel formwork at the arrival section inside the existing shield, L=1.520m from the outer circumference of the existing shield, was excellent, and there were no leaks of groundwater or muddy water during the placement of fluidized treated soil or during the shield cutting with the tunneling machine, allowing for safe cutting. 【Construction Example】 ■Location: Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture ■Client: Nagoya City Waterworks Bureau ■Contractor: Asanuma Corporation ■Nominal Diameter: φ2200mm ■Thrusting Length: 101.520m ■Underground Obstacles: Direct access to the existing shield Inner diameter of the existing shield φ3750mm *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

To maintain and improve web accessibility quality, it is essential to regularly and irregularly investigate the presence of issues. However, depending on how the diagnosis is initiated and continued, it may not be possible to resolve problems or connect to higher goals. In this seminar, we will explain and share ideas on how to utilize our diagnostic services to continue improving web accessibility and embed (mature) these efforts within the organization. ■Recommended for: - Web personnel from companies that are working on or planning to work on accessibility - Those who have undergone web accessibility quality diagnostics, tests, or checks but have not effectively utilized the results - Individuals facing challenges in continuing web accessibility improvement measures or maturing their efforts *Please refrain from applying if you are from a competing company or an individual. ■Agenda: 1. Improving accessibility is an endless "journey" 2. Features of our web accessibility diagnostic services 3. Related services that are effective when combined with diagnostics 4. Aiming for "continuation" and "maturity" in web accessibility improvement 5. Q&A *The contents of the above agenda may change without notice.
